About:
faas-cli is the official command-line tool for OpenFaaS, enabling developers to build, template, and deploy serverless functions to any Kubernetes cluster or Docker Swarm. It streamlines the process of creating functions from templates and managing their lifecycle, making serverless development accessible and portable.
Key Features:
  • Scaffold functions from built-in or custom templates
  • Deploy functions to Kubernetes or Docker Swarm
  • Invoke functions directly from the command line
  • Build and push container images for functions
Use Cases:
  • Developing and deploying event-driven serverless applications
  • Creating APIs for microservices
  • Automating serverless function workflows in CI/CD pipelines
Alternatives:
  • kn – Knative CLI; focuses on the Knative ecosystem on Kubernetes.
  • serverless – Framework-agnostic; supports multiple cloud providers and runtimes.
